In 1918, when Germany lost the war, it blamed its defeat on the efficiency of Room 40, in the Old Building of the British Admiralty---the room in which German wireless message were intercepted and decoded. German then decided to train a clever spy who would be solidly entrenched in Room 40, whenever the next war came. In 1939 John Usher (
Edgar Barrier)is acknowledged the genius of Room 40. His fiancée, Sudan Ainger (
Stephanie Bachelor)is also working in Room 40. John's ten-year-old son, David (
Bobby Cooper),at school in Switzerland is called home. The night before DAvid arrives home, John is murdered, but his twin brother Robert (
Edgar Barrier),impersonates John and continues his work. Only Sir Christopher (
C. Aubrey Smith)and David know of the plan. The safety of six high-ranking British officers who are taking a plane to Warsaw, depends on decoding Nazi messages.But the Nazis switch codes and solution seems impossible.
